Lal (history, Australian National U.) presents a collection of 17 essays honoring Bob Kiste and the contribution he made to the promotion of Pacific Island studies during his 24 years at the U. of Hawai'i at Manoa. Twelve leading Pacific Islands studies scholars describe places of importance to their personal and professional lives, and how their experience of those places has enriched their scholarship and helped raise larger questions of the construction of identity, epistemology, and an understanding of the human condition. The essays explore physical spaces, spatially contextualized historical events, special moments in time in a place, significant formative experiences, and journeys from one space to another.
